Default Trans am Junkyards?

Any places in the Dallas area that keep parts like that?

I in particular need a side skirt right now, but I always have people looking for trans am or ss parts.

Any ideas guys?

Might also want to check with Robbie (STS95T/A). He has a shop in Mansfield and is always parting out cars. Very nice guy to do business with, too!

Shoot me a PM with his contact info if that is better than PMing.

I called and dealt with Mark over @ HP salvage. He happened to have the part and I need and even agreed to ship it. Very nice guy to deal with. Much better than any typical salvage yard.

Highly recommend them if you need anything.
